The Riigikogu's board has confirmed changes in the composition of its select committees, with three MPs joining three different committees and two MPs stepping down.
Conservative People's Party of Estonia (EKRE) MP Kert Kingo has been charged with fraud, following an Internal Security Service (ISS) investigation which began in March.
Olukorras, kus inflatsioon oli augustis üle 25 protsendi, erasektoris palgad tõusevad ja riigisektoris õpetajad ähvardavad streigiga, on indekseeritud palgaga kõrgemaid riigiteenistujaid tuleva aasta aprillist ees ootamas eurodes mõõdetuna enneolematu palgatõus.
Center Party MP Siret Kotka divested herself of three properties in August, which she had allegedly used to obtain undeclared rental income. Kotka had also allegedly been claiming expenses for several years in respect of a rental property – this time one in which she is a tenant – in Tallinn, rather than residing in any of four apartments that she has reportedly owned during that time.
While support for the coalition Reform Party has fallen in recent weeks, the opposition Center Party is at its lowest since early 2019, according to a recent survey.
